This reminds me of the attempt to start up an OpenACS Foundation from this
thread. What happened to that idea?
I like the direction that Apache and SourceForge are heading with their project donation schemes. I think the WorkerBee/Bounties initiative is a great idea.
This raises a few questions about a Foundation:
1. Who will be responsible for the Foundation? OCT? Not all of OCT are in the one country.
2. Where will it be located? Tax will be a big issue, unless someone lives in the Cayman Islands. :)
3. Could this all instead be processed through paypal? Meaning everyone creates their own paypal account and have that advertised on the openacs site somewhere? Maybe associated with a package that they prefer to maintain?
